This will become the delay (in milliseconds) used between the time you begin hovering a key and the time it is inserted into the input element. I find a number between 500 and 1000 works best.

Could you possibly add the ability to turn this feature on/off from the keyboard interface itself. Or maybe make it work with a modifier. Like for eg i could set the feature on, but it'd only work if i pressed a certain key on the keyboard. Like SHIFT or ALT

Aug 12, 2010 5:09pm GreyWyvern Script's Author	Every "feature" that I expose to the user needs an interface element and IMHO there are already too many :) Enabling it by holding down a modifier key is too obscure, and also it requires using the keyboard, which the script is trying to eliminate! I think I will leave clickless as it is right now and maybe look into persistent storage that works cross browser (Opera, Firefox, Chrome). Then I could make a "settings" kind of interface that remembers your choices in the userscript as long as the browser is open.

You could take a look at my Pimp.my.Gmail script which uses persistent storage that works cross-browser.
